Mannheim Steamroller is a musical group that began recording in 1975, with its first Christmas CD in 1984. Founder Chip Davis created a unique sound that blends Renaissance instruments and Baroque stylings with synthesizers and rock beats.

Besse, who has played with Chip Davis, has brought together area musicians to play the Music of Mannheim Steamroller. He has created the tracks that provide the background for the live musicians.
